Shimpo is 1/4 but you have to understand that 1/4 is not all that you need
(I hope my memory is serving me right). The head size varies a bit
depending on what you get (stainless steel, brass, etc.). I got various
ones and tried them out - some would fit one bat and others another.

1/4-20 cap screw.

a friend told me to replace my pins before re-drilling all my bats.
the bats were holding loosely on the pin heads.

i was STUNNED how that simple change tightened up my bats!

the heads wore down A LOT & i hadn't noticed.

see ya
